Ok, my Atlanta Falcons.

we all know reasons to be happy about our teams, what are your gripes...

#1 We have no kicker.

#2 We have no kicker.

#3 Nelson Garner is so horrible as the Georgia Force kicker it makes me depressed that the Falcons don't have a kicker. (yes, I am so pathetic I have actually been to every home arena game this season but I was paid for it so that counts I hope)

#4 the third string RB from Liberty ran all over our defense last season.

#5 Pathetic privaledged nancy boy QB Chris Simms who stunk it up at Texas actually got an NFL gig and played pretty well last season and the damned hated Suckaneers and Panties got better in the areas they needed to, also the Ain'ts picked up Reginald.

Yanks - rotation isn't strong enough
Giants - brutal schedule and tough division
Knicks - GM/Coach/Roster/Owner suck

take comfort in knowing that when it does happen, the long wait will make it that much better.

Rams: Defense HUGE question mark, new coach/system

Dolphins: new QB, whole new Secondary, no true recieving threat

Dodgers: perpetual .500, bullpen blows, no hitters to fear every night. Starting pitching is unimpressive

Notre Dame: too much hype, defense not that great, primed for let down

thats without going in to the horrible details of why my continue to make me miserable.

My team will have a great season, i'm guessing 14-2 or 13-3. Then they will choke in the playoffs again

He displaced a guy in Major Applewhite, who played pretty well in big games (where Simms faltered) and pretty much guarenteed Applewhite would end up in some crappy coaching positon (like the one he's currently in at Syracuse) whereas Simms would get by mostly on the merits of his fathers greatness luckily for him he got in to a program with a guy who's good with QB's...hmm I wonder how that happened. ;) Daddy has a lot of pull. In other words, if you're Tampa, expect to see a regression in season two from Simms.

I've never liked Simms, him playing for Tampa makes me hate him more.

3000+ yards 26TD's and 12 INt's aren't all that bad, but I really, really, really dislike the guy.

In that case...

lakers: judging by the past couple offseasons, i have no faith in the lakers management when it comes to drafting players or signing free agents

49ers: did you watch alex smith play last year? ouch

dodgers: see koufax's response

ucla football: new quarterback and new primary running back might lead to a long season

ucla basketball: injuries and two key players have already declared for the draft

Red Sox: A couple question marks about the pitching, poor bottom of the lineup

Patriots: Um...

Celtics: See last season. GM is terrible at picking free agents so we'll have to wait for years until the young players develop.
